She should have had them on a leash, now that would have been something to. And as for your last comment...it can start by you but not by me yet.

ferrets need to be leashed, muzzled and/or caged at all times

The guy that cuts my hair does.

Spoiler: apologies for this

I hope he washes his hands well before your haircut

I mentioned Northern California to him then, and I just got another "Hmmmm." I don't think he's going for it.

What about down in North Carolina? Weekends in Disney

Yous people from Goinsey are confusing. One day you're a Brit and the next you're not. Which is it?

Ha! Broccoli is one of my favorites. I love broccoli, brussels sprouts, spinach, green beans, etc...but can't stand beer. I'll keep it that way.

Amen

DH battles them every evening when he gets home from work. The best way is just to knock them into a container of soapy water. There is a lot written about how the traps actually just lure more to your area, and make the problem worse.

DH said it looks like their numbers are going down, so hopefully, this part of the year will be done soon!

I've been squishing them and then dropping them in soapy water. Traps work in my case because I have neighbors in each direction that let me put them on their property. None of them grow anything except grass(legal) so they don't mind and I share some of my extra produce and herbs(again legal) with them

Super stressed today. Woke up to a message about estate issues. Blech...everything should have been wrapped up MONTHS ago. I'm wondering what the lawyer is even doing, because we don't seem to be getting any closer to being able to sell things. Frustrated!!!

sympathy like. Hope it all works itself out.

They might not be so happy when the grubs that are left kill of their grass. And the more grubs, the more that are going to be swarming to you. Drown those suckers in soapy water, I say. No squishing required.

Maybe that's why the skunks and turkeys hang out at their houses All kidding aside they hang out closer to the woods so I didn't do anything mean and we seem to have less and less of a problem every year doing it this way

Spoiler: beetles

the suckers deserve to be squished I'm not taking any chances
